CNB-ISB 2025 Satellite meeting: Muscle-Tendon Mechanics Across Species      Helsinki, Finland – July 23-25, 2025

The Comparative Neuromuscular Biomechanics Technical Group (CNB), in collaboration with researchers at the Faculty of Sport and Health Sciences, University of Jyväskylä (JYU), and Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam are planning a 2 day/3 night in-person satellite meeting in Helsinki, Finland July 23rd-26th 2025, prior to at the ISB2025 Congress in Stockholm, Sweden.  The meeting location is Backby Manor.

 

This meeting is being organized by Taylor Dick, Taija Finni, Neil Cronin, Jonas Rubenson, and Huub Maas

 

CNB aims to accelerate cross-pollination between comparative and human biomechanics fields, and is well aligned with the strategic aims of JYU’s Faculty of Sport and Health Sciences. The meeting is scheduled directly before the ISB Congress in Stockholm Sweden, and we envision attendees travelling from Helsinki to Stockholm (ferry and airplane options).

 

The scientific program includes the following sessions:

  • From small to big: Comparative Biomechanics across scales
  • Muscle-tendon Properties and Mechanisms
  • Computational Modelling
  • Muscle-tendon Dynamic Function
  • The 3 Bs: Biomimetics & Bioinspired-design in Comparative Biomechanics
  • Open Biomechanics

 

Confirmed Invited Speakers:

  • Nicolai Konow
  • Lena Ting
  • Dominic Farris
  • Massimo Sartori
  • Peter Magnusson
  • Benedicte Vanwanseele
  • Stephanie Ross
  • Emma Hodson-Tole
  • Kirsten Albracht
  • Christofer Clemente
  • Jan-Henning Dirks
  • Cameron Taylor

 

We will have an open call for abstract submissions in early 2025, stay tuned for more details.
